Headquartered in Plano, Texas, Ares Materials develops polymers and specialty materials using its proprietary Materials Intelligence platform.
The platform uses AI to learn from data on the molecular structures and compositions of materials, predict their properties, and optimize their performance. It can shorten development timelines by reducing the number of experiments that must be repeatedly conducted during conventional materials development.
